With increased dryness, tightness of the skin and its peeling, it is necessary to use just such a consistency. It is absorbed longer than the usual means, but has more vitamins and minerals in the composition;
• lotion suitable for summer period. In the form of lotion presented cosmetics for tanning and caring products that also cleanse the skin. Liquid, almost like water, the solution is able to create a protective film on the epidermis. A little moisturizes and prepares the skin for sunbathing;
• spray Used for quick application and second absorption. The composition uses a large number of volatile substances that penetrate deep into the skin. Most often in this form are avtozagary. So there are no stains on the dermis, tan appears smoothly.
